What do you think is too serious to joke around about?

Well depends on who your talking to. My brother in law died on New Year's Eve and his brother was cracking jokes about the mortgage being paid off now (cos his brother had insurance), a few hours later.... that was his coping mechanism to use humour to deal with the grief.

Personally i do not like jokes about my religion, call me a fuddy duddy or whatever u want, but my deen (Islam) should not be mocked by those practising it. I dont mean people who are not Muslims can't poke fun because they do not understand, but those who make fun of the religion for no apparent reason. I also do not mean Muslim comedians, as some of them are real funny, they poke fun at the way people practise religion and their idiosyncrasies, they are not making fun of the religion itself. Again my brother in law (above) is guilty of this. May Allah help him and guide him.

Other than that you can laugh at whatever you want as long as its not me!
